How about when McDonalds is selling Muppet, Star Wars, ET, Smurf, etc. etc.
glasses.  Everytime you order a coke they want to know if you want it in one
of their special glasses.  When they do this (I usually use the Drive-thru) I
ask them if the glasses are free.  Then when they tell me they're 99 cents I
bargain with them and tell them 75 cents is my final offer.  It keeps the
Mc-employees on their toes plus the people in my car and I have a few laughs
to boot.
